And I'm Off

It’s the 2nd of February and yesterday was the first day in weeks that I was able to go the whole length of the horseshoe from the house. I’ve gotten used to paddling down a quarter mile or so before things get too thick to bust through. Not that it was smooth sailing yesterday, but I made it. 

Did some ice breaking and one ice-portage (crackity crack!) on what was a beautiful day. Sun. Birds. All of it. 

And today…

Today I was off the water. First time in 35 days. Sort of a return to sanity as far as going out goes, but also a bummer that I didn’t. 

Jeff was bummed too - he hasn’t been on the water since late December and he’s itching to go!
